Teacher has absolutely no right to post it. There are privacy laws afforded students...and likely in every state.
The “D” was a gift
The Great Gatsby in college?
I remember reading that in Middle School
What are they reading in Middle Schol? Those 1st grade Golden books?
A *D* is generous.
It should have been an *F*.
In more than one cartoon Tom has made a sandwich with Jerry Mouse in between the bread slices.
You are not far from right.................
Teacher could post that, the name was blocked out, so why not?
I never seen how student work is “confidential” or a privacy concern.
“Pepe Le Pue wants to impregnate Penelope.”
And the prof had to put a question mark next to “impregnate”? Is there something unclear about the polite “impregnate”? The vernacular term would not have gone over well.
How did this kid get a “D”? It should have been an “F.”
Very creative writing, but way off topic. His paper did not answer the requirements of that assignment.
The teacher was sort of foolish, to post this for public viewing and debate. That teacher has ceded much of his authority to popular opinion and the number of ‘likes’.
I smell a hoax.
I did not know that the hapless cat in the Pepe LePew cartoons is named Penelope. I learned something today.
We read Victor Hugo’s “Les Miserable” and Edith Hamilton’s “Mythology” in eighth grade. Times have changed.
Methinks the prof cut the student some slack for a good sense of humor.
Diane : How would you characterize "The Great Gatsby"?
Thornton Melon : He was... uh... great!
My first thought... Seems to be mocking American values in a highly uneducated manner.
Our domestic enemies feel compelled to do their part against all for which we stand.
Just curious.
Definitely an F grade. A grade of D is usually reserved for students copying an essay directly from Cliff’s notes.
And I meant by the student, or someone s/he farmed the paper out to.
The kid is obviously a wise guy, However, I think he has a future in comedy-writing.
